How to remove power indicator lamp H/K 330c ??

Cleanup and refurb of newly acquired 330c going well. Had to clean out the tape monitor switch to get both speakers working at the same time. I have to find dial indicator lamps, and replacement looks straight forward (now that I figured out how to get them out). So far FM and AM and Aux (cd player plugged in) all work great. Main problems so far are most lamps burned out and tuning strength meter doesn't work.

OK, main question at this point - how does the Power Indicator lamp come out of the little socket it is in ? unscrew, push in and twist, pull straight out ?

I don't want to break it trying to get it out, and I may need it as a sample to find a replacement.

Is there a good online store for getting these vintage H/K parts? I think the nearest H/K service place is in Toronto which is 2 hrs from me.

This receiver is a nice sounding little guy. It'll be cool to get it fully functioning as new again.

Thanks.

Ken,

The service manual lists the lamp as 8 Volt, 60 ma.

Link to the service manual:

So far, I have seen screw in, push in and lamps with leads. all in the same models. Cant figure out h/k's logic on this.

If it looks like a push in bulb, gently rock the lamp with a set up needlenose pliers (holding the metal portion of the lamp). If you have a local electronics parts outlet, you may find one. If not, try an online source like electrosonic to match the bulb and look online. If that does not work, let me know and I will see if I can find you one here in Ottawa.

Cheers,
Joe
